It’s that time of the year again – World MasterCard Fashion Week is ON in Toronto, and so is Stylicity! I am really happy to be back (for the third time!) as a Stylicity blogger for Yorkville, and would love to share with you the amazing deals that are on for the next two weeks in that fashionable and fun neighbourhood. From October 18th to November 3rd, you can get exclusive savings at over 125 of Toronto’s hottest retailers and restaurants when you shop with your MasterCard!

Some of my favourite Yorkville boutiques and restaurants are participating in Stylicity this season, and that means that you have a chance to snag some great deals on food, fashion, and spa treatments too! Get 20% off your purchase at Aime Luxury, Cole Haan, The Cashmere Shop, Rac Boutique, Raindrops, MoRoCo Chocolat, M for Mendocino, and more! Receive a gift with purchase at Avec Plaisir, Capezio, Eres, and Sunglass Hut. Or enjoy a special prix fixe menu at Annona Restaurant, and The Living Room in the Windsor Arms Hotel.

I don’t know about you, but I already picked up some delicious cassis macarons from MoRoCo (20% off!), bought a few fun things at Banana Republic and M for Mendocino (stay tuned for an outfit post!), and I still have two more weeks left to enjoy the deals…and so do you!

When Rita Liefhebber styled our Yorkdale is Me photoshoot back in 2010, I found out that this model-turned-stylist was also an amazing designer as well. Talk about multitasking! Well, this week, I attended her S/S 2011 trunk show at Yorkville’s Rac Boutique, and I just could not walk away empty handed. A small, but versatile collection of hand-dyed, hand-knit, hand-stitched tanks, silk tops, maxi dresses, gorgeous scarves, and sexy basics was simply perfect for any contemporary fashion loving city girl. I love that Rita’s designs don’t scream sexy, they whisper it. Rac owners Glenna and Faith, obviously just as excited about Liefhebber’s designs, will also carry her Fall 2011 collection come September.

After much speculating, I picked up a grey and black hand-dyed silk tank top, that I decided was perfect for my top-lacking wardrobe. My very first Rita Liefhebber piece…but definitely not last! Next time you find yourself in Yorkville, make sure to stop by Rac Boutique and peruse Rita’s lovely collection. You won’t regret it!
